few weeks ago Senator Sherman did not thiAk
that 1t would be best for the State Convention to
touch the Presidential question, but the public
talk in the Democratic papers Of the State about
his weakness in Ohio aroused him and he resolved
to have an Endorsement this year. or withdraw at
once and forever from the Presidential roll Tho
Blaine following in the State was aroused by this
announcement and for q time there threatened
to be contest In the convention,
but all practical differences were adjusted.
Major Mckinley and the other Blaine meu.
who were members Of the Committee on Resolu-
tions agreed to the words Of Endorsement which
are incorporated in the platform. When the reso-
luton was read it was greeted with cheers and
when it was put to vote it passed without dis-
senting voice.
Senator Sherman was permanent chairman of the
convention. and he made one of the most genial
and popular speeches of his life when the delegates
called upon him to address them. He said:
